Chapter 208 Shampoo, Soap, And Perfume
Chapter 208 Shampoo, Soap, And Perfume
"My lord, hello."
Although she was put aside and ignored for a long time, Karen's attitude was still very respectful, and there was no impatience or anger on her face.
Seeing this, Li Fan nodded and said, "A successful businessman is most afraid of being impatient. You are very good."
Hearing this, Karen didn't understand that the ignorance just now was Li Fan's test of his patience.
He couldn't help but secretly thankful that fortunately he didn't show any dissatisfaction.
"Speak, complete what you just said." Li Fan spoke again.
After hearing this, Karen took a deep breath hastily, and said after she collected her thoughts.
"Dear lord, I was originally a businessman who specialized in selling shampoo, and I was quite well-known. I even sold shampoo to the imperial capital before, and I made friends with many nobles in the imperial capital. Just over a month ago, shampoo The city was destroyed, and I also went bankrupt due to an accident..."
Li Fan has also heard about shampoos, but after all, they are inferior perfumes.
Most people in the magical world will have a smell, and the reason is very simple.
One is that they don't like to take a bath.
Secondly, no city in the entire Magic Continent has a sewer system. In addition, the residents of the city still like to defecate everywhere. In the morning, they even pour the excrement left over from last night directly into the street.
These habits, even the nobles are no exception.
As a result, they inevitably have a lot of 'complex' flavors.
And once nobles want to hold a banquet, they will try their best to cover up their smell.
Then they use shampoo.
The name shampoo sounds powerful, but in fact this shampoo is a liquid mixed with a bunch of scented things.
Most of them are composed of petals and spices.
Whether the final product has more fragrance or smell is really uncertain.
Li Fan is not interested in such shampoos at all.
But this shampoo is Karen's biggest income ever.
The lord of Chambord City also sold some failed products and did not allow merchants to choose shampoos by scent. Karen could always find the shampoo with the strongest fragrance under such circumstances, and it was because of this that he was able to make friends with the nobles of the imperial capital.
However, all this was ruined a month ago.
Karen continued at this time: "Just when I thought my life was over, I saw the soap produced in this territory in the hotel, my God, I dare to swear to the gods, this soap is definitely not inferior to any Shampoo, if the lord is willing to sell me the soap, I will definitely make it famous in the imperial capital... no, it will be famous in the entire human empire."
Li Fan was silent for a moment after hearing this, and while he was thinking, he knocked on the table with his fingers in an orderly manner.
The sound of "dong dong dong" seemed to hit Karen's heart.
Karen twitched with each blow.
Just when Karen felt like she was going to pass out, Li Fan finally spoke.
"I won't sell you soap..."
As soon as these words came out, Karen felt that the whole sky was dark.
Just when he felt that his life was hopeless, he heard Li Fan continue.
"But I can give you a chance, a chance to freely buy and sell soap in our territory?"
Karen stood up abruptly, almost threw herself in front of Li Fan, and asked, "What chance?"
Li Fan didn't answer right away, but just gave him a sharp look.
It was only then that Karen noticed her gaffe, and quickly explained: "I'm sorry, my lord, I'm just... just too excited."
As she spoke, Karen took a few steps back and bowed to Li Fan to apologize.
Li Fan nodded and didn't care, and continued: "The opportunity is that you join our territory, as long as you join our territory, I will promise you the right to buy soap, not only soap, but also the right to sell perfume I can give it to you too."
"Perfume?" Karen was a bit unfamiliar with the word.
Li Fan exchanged 10 bond points for a bottle of the worst perfume directly from the system mall, and handed it to Karen.
The reason why it is the worst perfume is because Li Fan doesn't want to make a fool of himself in the future.
Relying on the knowledge of books, they are naturally able to produce perfume, but limited by the limitations of materials and machines, the perfume they produce will definitely not be very good.
If he exchanged a bottle of high-end perfume at this time, and when they made their own perfume in the future, it turned out to be a bottle of inferior product, then he would lose face.
But even the low-quality perfume exchanged in the system mall is not comparable to something like shampoo that has no technical content.
Under the guidance of Li Fan, Karen pressed the button on the perfume a few times, and a stream of water mist with strong fragrance sprayed out from the mouth of the bottle.
"Obviously there is water in the bottle, but what appears is mist?"
Karen was stunned. He didn't know the principle of the atomizing nozzle, so he directly regarded this as a magic item.
Li Fan didn't explain, and asked him directly: "How does this perfume compare to shampoo?"
"It's not a level of existence at all. Shampoo is a piece of shit before perfume. My lord, once this perfume appears, I guarantee that even the royal family will be tempted." Karen made no secret of her optimism for perfume.
Thinking that she will be able to freely sell this perfume in the future, Karen is already incoherent with excitement.
Karen couldn't wait and said to Li Fan: "My lord, I am willing to join your territory, please let me join your territory, of course, I know it is not that simple to join your territory, I must go through some You can only join after a test, right? Tell me, apart from my life, everything I have can be dedicated to you."
Li Fan felt both amused and admiring seeing such a crazy Karen.
For the sake of business, these guys can really throw everything away.
Li Fan didn't hesitate anymore, and said directly: "Of course a test is needed, and the test is...you passed the test."
"Huh?" Karen looked puzzled, how did he pass the test? By the way, was there any test just now?
Li Fan didn't explain anything to Karen, he just glanced at the system panel.
While he was talking with Karen just now, the system beeped three times.
[Ding, congratulations to the host for forming friendship with human Karen, bond value +1. 】
[Ding, congratulations to the Terran Karen who has reached 1-star favorability with you, and you can get 1 bond point for interacting with each other every day. 】
[Ding, congratulations to the host for interacting with Karen, bond value +1. 】
The so-called test may also be deceived by acting skills.
In contrast, Li Fan is more willing to believe in the favorability of the system.
Karen's affection for him can reach 1 star in an instant, so Li Fan believes that Karen at this moment must be sincere.
And this is Li Fan's test.
Li Fan stood up at this moment and said to Karen: "Congratulations, Mr. Karen, from now on, you are a member of our territory."
"As a member of the territory, I think you must be willing to help the territory complete some small tasks?"
As he spoke, Li Fan grinned, showing a big mouthful of white teeth.
